Volunteers for Camp Credit

Available for ages 13+

Volunteers can earn credit toward camp registration by serving at approved camp events or workdays. For each verified shift completed, volunteers receive a set dollar credit applied to their family’s camp fees.

Credits are earned only for roles and hours approved in advance by camp staff; typical opportunities include nursing, kitchen/help staff, maintenance projects, and organized work parties.

To receive credit, volunteers must:

  • Apply through the volunteer registration and indicate you’d like to earn camp credit.

  • Submit any required background checks or required forms before serving (as applicable).

  • Verify hours with Staff Director to receive credit.

Credits will be applied as requested towards any Camas Meadows sponsored events or fees.

Unused credits expire annually. Contact the camp office for current credit rates, eligibility details, and available volunteer opportunities.
